Knowing that this celebrity child has just graduated from high school makes us feel veeeeery old.

Madonna’s eldest child, Lourdes, has graduated from New York’s “Fame school”, LaGuardia High.

Argh. How did she get so old? How did we get so old?

Lourdes, now 17, goes by the name Lola and she has written a blog on her fashion site Material World , discussing her achievement:

She said she had a great time at her prom and even may have had some sneaky champagne, just like any normal teenager.

She writes:

She hasn't shared her plans for her future as yet but we can't wait to see what she gets up to. She is very interested in fashion but for now,  Lola is off to college. She is thought to be attending the University of Michigan.

Mama Madonna must be incredibly proud.
